This program represents a collaborative effort by an informally constituted team of educational reformers to use the outcomes of physics education research along with flexible computer tools to develop activity-based models of physics instruction. This project includes the refinement of existing written materials, apparatus, instructional techniques, and computer software and hardware; the creation of new instructional materials and approaches; as well as classroom testing in different settings and dissemination. The refinement and development of instructional strategies and materials is informed by a comprehensive program of educational research.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #339966\"><em><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/activitybasedphysics\/files\/2013\/11\/UnderConstruction.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-210\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/activitybasedphysics\/files\/2013\/11\/UnderConstruction-300x233.gif\" alt=\"UnderConstruction\" width=\"194\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>This blog is being updated.
